    Fold because you don't have the price to hit ur outs and you can't take them off their hand because they are pretty much committed.

    ^^ couldnt agree more

    but depends on what you want from your poker

    are you playing to win or playing for fun and to gamble

    but a call here would be a losing play in the long run

    also if its a dym then you arent playing for the win and still have a healthy chip stack after the fold

    Hi ricky. First of all, i would'nt take me as a winning player!! However, if you fancy a bit of this hand i personnally would not be calling from the small blind, i would fold or raise from there, you have to pressurize the BB if your in. Once you have done what you have then i cant argue with splashies. Odds are'nt there so its an easy fold over time.
